A Neat Trick.

The following game, from the Pansy,
will be interesting for the children:
Bring newspaper into room; a
pretty large one, for it seems more rea-
sonable, as you go on to ask: "Can you
and you pointing to two members of
the family circle stand with both feet on
the paper which may spread on the
floor, vet not touch each other2"
"Nonsense p at can't be donep'
Impossible - will greet your ears.
Make them try, Mary. Encourage
them now and then by telling them how
you and Tom have done it. Give it to
two others after the first two have tried
long enough, until everybody has ex-
hausted their ingenuity. Finally take it
yourself when they have al laughed long
enough over the ridiculous trials, and go
to the doorsill; over it lay your paper.
"Now, Tom," you call, take your
place"
Tom goes out over the paper and
stands on his half as it lies over the sill.
Then shut the door, and you put your
two feet squarely on your half OF the
paper in the room.
A shout will greet you. 1t is one OF
the neatest tricks if brightly played.

HOW OFTEN.

bow many lips have uttered one sweet word,
Ever the sweetest word in any tonguel
How many listening hearts have wildly
stirred,
While burning bushes to the soft cheeks
sprung,
And dear eyes, deepening with light di-
vine,
Were lifted up as thine are now to mine!
How oft the night, with silence and perfume,
Has hushed the world, that heart might
speak to heart,
Aud made in each dim haunt of leafy gloom
A trysting place where love might meet
and part,
And kisses fall unseen on lips and brow
AS on thine, sweet my kisses linger nowl

the ordinary way that letters do occasionally
go astray; but 1t was as impossible, you will
presently see, that IL should ever have reached

1.-The letter containing the amount named

tered envelope for which duly paid, never
dispatched; and in the hurry skurry OF the
moment It was never entered, either, in the
official book. The fault was, Of course, my
own, quite as much as that Of any one elsei
but every one was asking hurried questions
at the moment, and my letter-yours, rather
paid the penalty. Then, as fate would have
it, it landed itself otherwise than in the lie.
Ultimate post bag, and dropped, how is best
known to itself, behind a drawer that is
rarely opened.

"Miss Josephine" like a wise woman,
answered the letter just received by re-
turn of post. .
The years have flown since then, and
matters go on much as usual in that
small township of Lammerton.
But there are changes, nevertheless.
Janet Isle knows her place no more
in the coy little postofice. She has al
ready gone home long since to rest and
sweet Elsie Falconbridge is now the mis-
tress of everything.
Her hair, however, though still beau.
tiful, is in these days white-white as
the driven snow; and the abiding ex-
preston upon her still handsome face is
that of one who has passed through a
mighty and also terrible sea of trouble,
and borne the trial only as true hero
inc could.
She knows, she says, that God has or
dered all, and that she shall see her
sailor lover again one day in heaven.
But there is still one person in the
world whom she loves dearly, and that
is the happy, true hearted wife of "uncle
Fred"
II owe all-every bit, in fact-of my
happiness to you, sweetest Elsie" as Jo-
Sephine says 1T all dates from the day

The Largest Hay Market.

New York IS the largest hay market in
the country, and yet only few thou
sand of the millions of bales which are
brought here annually find their way out
CT the city. The supply does not exceed
the enormous demand for city consump-
ton. Outside of few thousand bales
which go to Brooklyn to make up the
deficiency of the Long Island crop, the
$500, 900 bales which reach New York
every year are consumed on Manhattan
Island.
About a quarter of century ago the
counties along the Hudson River, south
of Albany, were able to furnish the city
with all the hay it needed, and twenty
five barges made weekly trips for forty
weeks of the year to fetch the crop to
market. Now it comes from every part
of the State, and Ohio and Indiana are
called upon to help supply the demand.
Hay comes from even as far west as
Kansas.
AS the hay growing district gradually
worked farther West the carrying bust
ness fell into the hands of the railroads,
and then the commission men made their
appearance. There are now about twenty
five large commission dealers who handle
hay exclusively, and host of smaller
dealers who either buy it and bring it
here or handle it in connection with
other produce. When the hay reaches
this city it is classified into grade No. /,
grade No. Q, and grade No. 3. The av-
erage price is $15 per ton. 1t is not usu-
ally weighed at this end, but is sold by
the weight marked on each bale at the
time of packing. The street railway
companies insist upon having it weighed
here before they buy it. Over $4,000
worth comes in every day.-NeeO York

he thought, was better than living alone.
He was rich, too, and highly cult

when he had sent off the registered let

But Elsie was instantly all attention.
Yes; she could tell him all he required
to know-and did so; and even as she
spoke, Elsie's eyes sparkled brightly and
lovingly. She was doing now what it
rejoiced her true woman's heart to ven
ture upon-trying to help her favorite.
"And Miss Falconbridgc thought that
the young lady in question might be
fully relied upon in her guidance of little
children" he asked.
"Oh, dear me- Yes-most certainly"
"You can give me her address,"
Elsie noted it down quickly upon a
slip of paper.
Before the end OF that certainly event

daily governess in the family of Uncle
Fred's sister, at the moderate salary of
two hundred dollars a year.

Sugar Cane.

The recent experiments conducted by
the Agricultural Department under new
process for extracting the juice of the
sugar cane, by the process of diffusion,
have resulted quite successfully. The
process may be described by saying that
it extracts the juice of the cane by soak
ing. 1t is nothing new, having been
practised in Europe for many years. The
juice passes from the cells of the cane
into water in which the cane has been
placed. By the old process the juice is
crushed out by direct pressure, the cane
being passed between rollers. Experts
report that the average yield of juice ex-
tracted by pressure is from ffty-six to
sixty-one per cent. of the quantity con-
tanned in the cane, although with special
care, and by using the best mills, seven
ty and even eighty per cent. has been OBJ
tanned. Generally, however, from one
fourth to one-third of the sugar is lost,
and is burned with the bagasse. By diff
fusion, on the other hand, amuch larger
per cent. is extracted, and the Juice is
obtained free from impurities. The sub
stituton of diffusion for pressure in India
some years ago raised the percentage in
quantity from seventy to eighty-fou per
cent, while the total gain of crystalized
sugar was forty-three per cent. The diff
fusion process has been so perfected in
the manufacture of beet sugar that nine
ty-fve per cent. of the juice il saved.
Some recent experiments with Louisiana
cane sugar resulted in 1874 pounds Of SUI
gar to the ton of cane, whereas, by the
old process only eighty pounds could
have been produced, and this means a
vast increase in the production of Louis
lana cane sugar, and decided impetus
to the growth of sorghum. - ultioat0r.
